    not to sure either. to me it seems like too much fuel getting into the cylinders. maybe that can be caused by exessive rail pressure? im about to check my fuel pressure today. as well as timing

    inertia switch/fuel pump problems

    i think the intertia switch having no output voltage is correct. what i mean is, if the output wire had voltage, that would mean the inertia switch would be active therefore cutting off your pump. since it has power but the switch isnt completing the circuit. that means the inertia switch isnt...

    the symptom im having is relative to the engine slowly flooding itself. my first startup after i got everything on is smooth, nice throttle response ect. the second start up directly after the first shutdown, i have that small miss right at start up, followed by a high idle, then poor throttle...

    i really dont know what is wrong with them. the reason i think im having issues is there may have been work done to these heads to which i don't know what was done. but every time i re adjusted the rockers, i would eventually get more noise from the passenger side of the engine. so something...

    so i got home and took the valve cover off of the mustang, and bumped the starter. the ticking noise started again, so i removed the valve cover and you can feel the tick in the rocker assembly, pushrod ect. so i would bump it again and the tick would continue but from a different rocker. on the...
